Trump Condemns Israeli Strike on Beirut as Iran Peace Deal Looms

President Trump has publicly condemned Israel's strikes on Beirut, stating the attacks should not have occurred on a day designated for a historic peace deal with Iran. The White House warns that such escalations risk derailing the imminent agreement to end the war, even as Defense Secretary Hegseth asserts the U.S. retains options if Iran fails to comply with uranium destruction terms. This diplomatic friction highlights the tension between immediate security concerns in the region and the administration's strategic push for a rapid ceasefire.
